Are you leveraging the latest trends in composting to optimize your operations? Join us to dig into the latest trends and insights from this all-new, comprehensive report on composting in the U.S.
As regulations tighten and environmental consciousness grows, compost production is on the rise. Join us to unpack key findings from an in-depth national survey, jointly conducted by EREF and the U.S. Composting Council, of 300+ facilities – highlighting significant industry growth, regional differences, and operational trends.
